About Bursill Albums

Bursill Albums is professional album design, proofing and print - turning your photographs into heirlooms you can hold. I design the albums myself and have them produced by leading manufacturers worldwide, holding trade accounts across the UK, Europe, the US, New Zealand and Australia. That means I can source from names like Graphistudio, Queensberry, Folio, Jorgensen and Renaissance, or track down any specific size, material or finish you've set your heart on. The curated range covers weddings, portraits, babies, family heritage, celebrations, corporate events and more, alongside photo restoration and colourisation. If your photographer delivered digital files only, or your memories are sitting in a shoebox or a phone gallery, I'll turn them into something worth reaching for years later - backed by over thirty years across print production, design and photography.

Bursill Albums draws on more than thirty years of images. It began with ten years in print production - learning how ink meets paper, and why what looks good on a screen doesn't always look good in your hands - followed by four years running a design studio in Leicester. Then came twenty years as a UK documentary wedding photographer: over 450 weddings, the WPJA UK Photographer of the Year title in 2009, a global top-three ranking, and three regional Best Photographer awards in the East Midlands (2012, 2014 and 2015). Having retired from shooting, Ian now brings that combined print, design and photography expertise to Bursill Albums - designing albums for any collection of photographs worth preserving, and having them handcrafted by the finest album makers around the world.

I'm Ian Bursill, and I've spent over thirty years working with images - ten years in print production, four running a design studio in Leicester, and twenty as a documentary wedding photographer with more than 450 weddings behind me, the WPJA UK Photographer of the Year title, and a global top-three ranking. Now retired from shooting, I've focused all of that on one thing: designing albums that do justice to the photographs inside them. You send me your images, I learn the story behind them, and I design a professional album, then have it produced by the finest manufacturers worldwide to a standard as good as the photographs themselves. Whether it's a wedding day, a family archive or a milestone event, my aim is the same - to give you something you can hold, turn the pages of, and feel something.

Ian is the final piece in the puzzle for your wedding. Everytime we look at our album we are taken straight back to our amazing day, feeling, tasting, smelling and being there over and over again. Speechless. In the best possible way. Thank You So Much. Jen & Greg, The Woods.

My husband and I chose Ian Bursill Photography as we wanted a non intrusive, but intimate record of our wedding day. Ian gave a very professional, flexible sevice, adapting to the shifting timings on the day. The finished products, in the form of an album and DVD of photographs, were exceptional. I would highly recommend Ian Bursill Photography to others and will request his services for future events.

We never wanted stiff, formal, posed photography for our wedding & instead we got exactly what we wanted- amazing unobtrusive photos that we can't even remember being taken. Ian helped to make our wedding day an amazing experience & the photos reflect that every time we look at them.

A superb wedding photographer, couldn't have asked for anything more. Photographs were fantastic as was service. Ian was so unobtrusive on the wedding day, we barely knew he was there! Would definitely recommend.
Ian Woolley
Ian's photography of our wedding was fantastic. Looking through the photo's afterwards we kept saying, when did he take that shot! The album that its presented in in first class and everybody who was there comment on how it captures the day perfectly. I recommend Ina to everybody that needs a photographer.
Owen Burdekin
Ian's photography is of the very highest quality. Because of his very subtle presence at our wedding, he was able to capture some moments that other photographers would have missed. He is a joy to deal with, and I can't recommend him highly enough.

I honestly do not remember what Ian did on the rainy and gloomy december morning when my husband and i got married. But one thing for sure, Ian did one heck of a job with his camera. Our wedding photos is superb as in result and quality. He captured us and our guess arriving in the rain and make it look very cheerful as if the rain was intended to make the occasion look better.
Jessica Verity
Ian photographed our wedding and worked with us from months before-hand up until when we got back from honeymoon to make sure that we got all of the snaps that we wanted and that we were happy with his work. He stayed longer than we expected him to on the day so that he could capture more special moments and was a pleasure to work with. Not to mention that he has got a great eye for the perfect shot and manages to capture the moment perfectly. He is very talented and reasonably priced - I'd definitely recommend him.

Ian Bursill Photography produced wonderful photos and album of our wedding day in 2007. Ian worked closely with us and made having our photos taken on the day a joy - and not the pain it can be for you and your guests! I wouldn't hesitate in recommending Ian to anyone who wants amazing photos of their special day! .

Ian photographed our civil partnership ceremony and reception, accommodating all our requests and coming up with some beautiful pictures. Friendly, personal service that I wish I had an excuse to use again!
Mel Atkinson
Ian photographed my wedding in March 2008 and he really captured the spirit of the day. We gave him free rein to take candid shots and he exceeded our high expectations - judging from some of the pics, he's got some kind of invisibility device! Ian is a real people person - he took lots of time before the wedding to find out about our needs and he was lovely and inobtrusive on the day. I can't recommend him highly enough - he's lightyears ahead of those starchy wedding photographers you usually see. Mel Atkinson and Heather Lomas.

Ian photographed our wedding in August 2007 in Cambridge. We were incredibly impressed with Ian's preparation, style and our final album. We met with Ian before our wedding and discussed the plan for the day, the type of pictures we wanted and the setting. This was invaluable and enabled Ian to ensure that he had special lighting equipment to take photographs in the candlelit hall where we had our evening meal and riverside shots of our departure at night. We asked for a few traditional group photographs but really wanted natural journalistic shots capturing and telling the story of our wedding day. Ian's style was entirely unobtrusive and our guests later told us that they did not notice most of the photographs being taken. We did not want to have a photographer who dominated the proceedings and limited the time we could spend with our guests - Ian ensured that this did not happen. Ian involved us throughout the design of the album and was happy to make the small changes we wanted and to remind us of the various options available. We actually chose to extend our album by an extra ten pages so that we could show the photographs off to their best effect. The ease of ordering additional pictures to frame or give as presents was also appreciated. Our photographs are spectacular and really distinctive. Ian has an excellent eye for framing the images and selecting shots which are fresh and exciting. Some of our photographs are truly world class and our friends continue to congratulate us on them.Moreexpand_more

Ian Bursill photography carried out wedding photo's. Ian was a real pleasure to work with. Prior to our wedding he took time to understand our requirements and on the day he struck the perfect balance of ensuring we got the pictures we wanted without disrupting guests and the atmosphere of the day. We were exceptionally pleased with the album that he created and felt he had captured our day perfectly. I would not hesitate to recommend him. He also carried out test photo's prior to the wedding which again we were very pleased with.
